Theories on Why We Like Other People
In order to figure out the reasons why we fall in like and why we fall in love with people of the opposite sex, many relevant researches have been conducted and there have been a number of findings. Of course, the most typical approach has been to explain attractions in terms of reinforcement principles. However, more recent theories have gone beyond the notions of reinforcement to develop more complex models of interpersonal attraction, and by and large, each of these newly【C1】______ theories does carry some germ of truth in them.
Firstly, the【C2】______ theory reflects certain aspects of our【C3】______ and loving phenomenon. According to this theory, our【C4】______ to people of the opposite sex is largely【C5】______ the feelings we have associated with them. People who【C6】______ us in some way arouse positive 【C7】______ in us, and thus we like them. Conversely, people who【C8】______ us arouse negative feelings and dislike. 【C9】______ do we like people who reward us directly, 【C10】______ we also like people who are present when we receive【C11】______, even though they are not the source of the rewards.
The second theory is called【C12】______ theory, which is forwarded and favored by a number of 【C13】______ like Homans and Thibaut and Kelly. According to these researchers, whenever we【C14】______ with others we go through a process of【C15】______both the rewards and costs of the interaction. One of the【C16】______ of exchange theory over the reinforcement theory is that is【C17】______ recognizes that there are many rewards and【C18】______(costs) present in most interactions. This theory【C19】______ that the person’s analysis of the total sum of the rewards and costs【C20】______ whether attraction will occur. But, both the【C21】______ and exchange theories cannot explain the phenomenon【C22】______ by the proverb that "one man’s meat is another man’s poison. " The third theory is called equity theory. To 【C23】______ the shortcomings of the reinforcement and exchange theories, 【C24】______ theory has developed some additional propositions about the【C25】______ in a social context. Equity theory has【C26】______ the proposal of a "matching hypothesis" : romantic relationships that are【C27】______ will be most successful, and thus people will try to get【C28】______ who "match" them in terms of level of【C29】______. The result, according to this theory, is that someone who is beautiful and【C30】______ might "match" someone who is plain and intelligent. Another theory is called gain-loss theory. According to this theory, humans’ liking is not determined【C31】______ by the other person’s characteristics and the extent【C32】______ they "match" our own. In situations where attraction is【C33】______ , the individual’s own ego is at stake, and liking may 【C34】______ as much or more on one’s feelings about oneself as on the【C35】______ of the other person. All in all, liking will occur when there is【C36】______ we can gain from the person we like or love, and the【C37】______ might be a physical gain, a physiological gain, a spiritual gain, an【C38】______ gain, or even an economic gain.
But, mind you! Although each of the theories does contain【C39】______, none of the proposed theories is【C40】______enough to fully explain the liking and loving phenomenon. Love, after all, is a vast mystery, and this mystery involves much more than modern science can explain. As the saying in our Chinese culture says, "Good husbands do not have good wives, and bad-looking men get pretty-looking wives. " [br] 【C20】
